My Project

I teach fourth grade immigrant students from various countries. My students speak lots of different languages and our school is very diverse and multicultural. My students are of homework agenda pads to keep their assignments for homework neat and organized. Having homework pads will allow all students to successfully keep track of their assignments in an organized manner. It is imperative to teach students real life organizational skills and this will help them to be successful in class. Having organizational tools to organize essential basic school supplies will help save lots of classroom instructional time. We would also love a staple gun to use for our bulletin boards. Let's help my NYC kids start the year off right with the best organizational tools ever. Let's ring in the back to school year with success.
